Friday Ephemera (814)
Bait. || Old boiler. || Balloon surgery. || Coming through. || Choices were made. || Something is missing. || Incoming. || Question asked. || How to glue Styrofoam to fabric, and answers to other glue-related questions. || Just like a guitar, but with really hefty magnets. || Rather more leg than I was expecting. || The progressive retail experience, parts 721, 722, 723, 724, 725, 726 and 727. || I suppose we could call this irony. || School science project of note. || It’s hers now. || She’s called coconut. || Testing weightlessness, 1958. || “What animal is chicken?” || What do you mean, it’s distracting and inapt? What are you, sonny, some kind of bigot? (h/t, Smallish Bees) || Suboptimal solution. || May encounter fog. || All the fun of the fair. || And finally, incendiary felines to burn down your enemy’s castle, 1584.

Imprison him and then deport him.
And examine all immigrants from his culture with appropriate suspicion.
That reminds me: One of the small benefits of a second home in England is the opportunity to say, in polite conversation, “My bankers are Hoares”.
Reminder … don’t get sick in Canada.
Would it be immoral to force MAiD on Canada’s ruling class? /rhetorical question
What’s the holiday? May Day? Bankers celebrating communism? Not that anything in these regards should surprise me.
